Light amber, yellow-gold in color draft-poured into a frosty pint glass.
Subtle, flowery nose.
No heavy hop, citrus or bitterness; some of each though. It is not your traditional big american IPA, just a light, balanced, and easy to drink ale.
Medium to light feel with a decent finish.
I usually go for the big IPAs but this is a very safe and enjoyable selection.

3/28...on tap in Round Rock. Pours a clear orange yellow color. Sharp soapy pine nose bursts. Clean hoppy bitter taste. Lots of flavor. Well carbonated. Tasty IPA.
